Tom Dick and Harry was released a few weeks back. This slapstick comedy is directed by Deepak Tijori and stars Jimmy Shergill, Dino Morea, Anuj Sawhney, Celina Jaitley and Kim Sharma. The musical assault is by Himesh Reshamiyya.

The movie is about three friends living together, one of whom is blind, one deaf and one dumb. And how these guys fall for the same girl is the story about Tom Dick and Harry.

Actually, this movie has been inspired from a play called "All The Best" which was originally a Marathi play and subsequently was staged in Hindi and Gujarati as well. I have seen the Hindi as well as Gujarati version and the play was absolutely fantastic! The comic timing and the performances were impeccable. The only regret I have is not having watched the original Marathi play. Hope to do it someday.
